Chapter 1118, Metaphysical Arrow Technique
On the third night of the caravan’s march, the group had just stopped to camp, when Qian Weining sent out his guards to stand guard and scout around the camp.
Those guards were all wearing brown leather armor, which was made of several layers of cowhide bonded and sewn together, enough to withstand normal sword slashes, at least it would be difficult for the average person to inflict fatal wounds on them while they were wearing the leather armor.
And Qian Weining went and returned after being sent away by Ren Xiaosu.
He said seriously to Meigo, “Honorable Lord Meigo, I must be honest, I am facing danger. But at the same time, one thing I understand very well is that although you are facing a different enemy than I am, we are in the exact same situation, so no matter who the enemy is that comes on this road, please do not save your strength so that we can safely arrive in Ghent City, is that alright?”
These words made Meggo worried, he knew very well that Qian Weining must be facing a very strong enemy to discuss things with himself so solemnly.
He pondered for a long time, then looked at Ren Xiaosu ……
Ren Xiaosu smiled at Qian Weining, “Don’t worry, I’m here.”
Qian Weining froze when he heard this, while Meigo became even more worried.
At a certain moment Meigo even suspected that these six words might be Ren Xiaosu’s mantra, no matter what you asked this teenager, the other party would answer you with these six words.
The camp no longer had the cheerful atmosphere of the first day, and even the daytime marching was a bit dull.
Those young people who had just left Yorkshire to chase their dreams in the big towns had only just stepped out of their hometowns and understood the cruelty of the world.
All will never forget how they buried their companions with their own hands on the first night.
When the wagon fence was blocked, Ren Xiaosu leaned against the wagon and asked, “How is the purchasing power of the currency in your wizard kingdom, how many things can gold coins buy?”
Mei Ge shook his head, “Gold coins are usually not used in daily life, what is more common in the market are silver and copper coins. Normally, one copper coin is five pounds of rice, one silver coin is equivalent to one hundred copper coins, and one gold coin is equivalent to twenty silver coins. Of course, the price of gold coins exchanging for silver coins fluctuates, basically varying between twenty-one and nineteen, and some people specialize in hoarding gold or silver coins to earn the difference in the middle.”
Ren Xiaosu nodded, “That’s a very easy business ah, you only need to keep an eye on the price of gold and silver, it’s just that no one cares about them.”
“Why should I care,” Meiguo said easily, “There is a handling fee for exchanging between each currency, you may make a profit, but the Witch Bank never loses.”
At this time, Ren Xiaosu’s body suddenly paused, and Meggo curiously said, “What’s wrong?”
“The enemy is coming,” Ren Xiaosu said.
Mei Ge was a bit puzzled, “How did you know that, why didn’t I notice it?”
“Intuition,” Ren Xiaosu said with a smile.
Mei Ge looked at Ren Xiaosu, but realized that Ren Xiaosu’s gaze was watching Qian Weining and the others, not knowing what he was thinking.
At this moment Ren Xiaosu’s so-called intuition finally made Mei Ge feel alarmed, on the way to avoiding pursuit, Ren Xiaosu had once helped him avoid the Fire Pillar Technique with his powerful intuition.
On the first night when the merchant caravan was attacked by bandits, Ren Xiaosu brought him to dodge dozens of arrows, at that moment Mei Ge even felt that as long as he had Ren Xiaosu by his side, no arrows would definitely be able to hit him.
Gradually, this strange feeling turned into, he felt that as long as Ren Xiaosu was still protecting him, then he would definitely not die.
Mei Ge didn’t know why he felt this way, maybe he really believed the bull that Ren Xiaosu had bragged about?
Before, Meigo hadn’t thought much about it, just like Ren Xiaosu said, even if he became a sorcerer, he was still a rookie sorcerer who had never killed anyone.
And now, as Meigo looked at Ren Xiaosu’s unperturbed appearance, he suddenly wondered, what made the other party so calm?
Was it bragging that Ren Xiaosu himself believed it, or did the other party himself have fearless strength?
“Then should I go help Qian Weining and the others,” Meiguo suddenly asked.
“Forget it, bows and arrows have no eyes, it’ll be fine,” Ren Xiaosu said and then called the two Sheepmen beside the campfire back as well, hiding behind the wagon together.
At this moment, there were hundreds of bandits rapidly approaching the camp in the mountain road outside the camp, and they didn’t realize in the slightest that there was a black shadow on the mountain coldly watching them.
Ren Xiaosu did not control Lao Xu to make a direct move, as he wanted to wait for the bandits to open their bows against Qian Weining and the others!
He wanted Qian Weining to become the divine archer in everyone’s eyes, and to use battle after battle to sit on that title, and then all of the enemy’s attention would be focused on Qian Weining, thus ignoring him, and even Meiguo as well.
The ones coming now were still bandits, but when the other side realized that the bandits weren’t able to complete the mission, the ones coming would be the regular army.
At that time, it all depended on the other party’s mood as to how many regular troops would come and pretend to be bandits.
At this time, the group of bandits on the mountain had already arrived around the camp, they silently measured the shooting distance, and then dozens of people opened their bows at the same time.
At the same time, there was another group of dozens of bandits who were moving towards the merchant camp under the cover of bows and arrows.
As the group of bandits slowly approached the wagon enclosure, Qian Weining suddenly became alert, and before he could get up, a feathered arrow landed in the center of the camp, with dozens of other feathered arrows following close behind.
Qian Weining’s complexion condensed, and he instantly got up and shot through the gap in the wagon towards where those feathered arrows had come from.
As soon as the arrows were released, the screams of the bandits rang out from the bushes on the opposite hillside, Qian Weining was stunned, clearly he hadn’t even aimed at them, but had they even hit someone?
Qian Weining took his bow and fired another arrow, and there was another scream from the opposite side.
To be honest, Qian Wei Ning had never felt such an enjoyable battle before, as if he was the only one who opened his bow, the enemy would surely die.
This was no longer a physical battle, but rather a metaphysical one!
Qian Weining’s hand arrow after arrow shot out, the mountain opposite one after another screams sounded, even Qian Weining himself feel that he may have been possessed by the God of Heaven, is simply the God of War reincarnation ah!
Beside them, there are two guards who see their own vice president so godly, and even give up their own opportunity to open their bows and shoot arrows, and instead run to Qian Weining’s side to help him pass the arrows, like shooting assistants specializing in loading chains next to a heavy machine gun…….
In a split second, an arrow suddenly shot along the gap between the carriages and flew past Qian Weining’s scalp.
Qian Wei Ning was shocked, and subconsciously leaned back to avoid the arrow, and the bow and arrow in his hand also lost its aim.
Seeing the arrow fly out into the sky, Qian Wei Ning felt sorry for it.
However, before he finished, the opposite side of the hill unexpectedly sounded a bandit scream, Qian Weining froze ……
